Garden Rose ‘Astrid Gräfin von Hardenberg’ – Deep red, fragrant, old-fashioned shrub rose
The Astrid Gräfin von Hardenberg, also known as ‘Black Caviar’, is a sophisticated dark red shrub rose bred by Hans Jürgen Evers and introduced by Tantau Roses. Its blooms display a striking blend of deep burgundy and purple tones, with a slightly lighter center that adds depth and elegance. The large, very full, quartered, old-fashioned blooms (up to 50 petals) make this rose a true showpiece.
One of its most remarkable qualities is the strong, captivating fragrance, combining notes of honey, lemon, and vanilla. The flowers, around 10 cm in diameter, appear repeatedly throughout the season in generous flushes.
With a arching, bushy, somewhat relaxed growth habit and dark green foliage, this rose is perfectly suited for romantic gardens, mixed borders, and classic rose displays.
